So after playing Mass Effect as a Female Shepard one thing really stood out to me. FemShep is way too skinny, I really wish Bioware made her a bit bulkier, or at least gave us the option to do so.

Im not saying this because Im into that kind of thing, I just really feel I could take FemShep a lot more seriously if she had a bit of meat on her bones.

[small]Also Im not the biggest fan of Jennifer Hales voice- please dont kill me[/small]

So anyway Escapists, are there any characters out there that you really think should have a different design?

Im sorry but I dont like how she delivers her lines, Mark Meer sounds a lot more natural in the role, now stay on topic damn you!

I second the blasphemy remark above.

Moving on.

Most of the female squad members from Mass Effect 2.

- Jack, put on a singlet or tank top.

- Miranda, find some sensible footwear. Twisting an ankle while being shot at is not fun times.

- Samara, same for you. Also, zip up, this isn't a nightclub.

It's OK, I don't like her either. I like some of her other roles but absolutely can't stand the way she does the FemShep voice.

Skyrim: Alduin should have been bigger and more menacing and more... anything really. He just seemed like just another dragon.

I wouldn't touch the lead protagonist of Dark Void though. I wouldn't have enjoyed that game as much if you didn't play as WW2 era Atton Rand.

For real though, I would have copy-pasted the character creation from Saint's Row 2 and put it into Saint's Row 3. I didn't care for the binary male/female choice and I hated the fact that I could play as hulk, I could play as Chris Farley but, I couldn't play as twiggy. Being as skinny as it's possible to be, my SR3 character was still built in a way that made him look perfectly well nourished. SR2 allowed you to play as a freaking stick figure.

Technically this isn't game-related...well kinda since they had one DS game...anyway that being said, EVERY female from Monster High wears high heels. Every last one of them. The overall style of the shoe varies from converse sneaker, open-toe sandal thing boot, those stupid boots that still show the toes...and heels. I consider that to be stupid (except in Claudine Wolf's case since she's the daughter of a wolf-man and is likely built that way). Also I don't see Erik the Phantom being legally allowed custody of Operetta or indeed giving her such a stupid name to begin with and...have already taken this a bit too far (Classic Shog!)

Bah.

OT - Adam Jensen. There is no reason at all as to why he shouldn't wear his trench coat during missions. And no, they Typhoon is not a valid reason. No. It is not.

Dragon Age: Origins had some seriously terrible character models all around. I remember there was a CG trailer for the game that featured some of the characters from the game and they all looked fantastic, then the game itself was released and none of them looked even remotely like they did in the trailer. They just looked terrible.

And why the blazes is Morrigan dressed like a goth stripper? Seriously.

And then why the hell did everything get changed from Origins to 2? Why are the black dudes demons now? Why are all the elves all freaky looking? Why did Morrigans mother turn into Maleficent? WHAT HAPPENED TO CONSISTENCY??!!?!?!

There is also no reason for having sunglasses implanted in his face but what the hell, i actualy kinda liked the fact that he took of his coat for tacticle missions, added just little realism to the situation.

Characters that didnt look right... hmm catwoman from arkham city? is there any reason she needs to show off that much cleavage?

Captch: Smirnoff, describe this brand with any word(s)

new policy at Sariff industries?

"all operatives are reminded that long-coats are to be worn at all times, including missions. Sarrif industries works to maintain a TOTALLY AWSOME BADASS!! image to the public, and expect employess to uphole thease standard"

Hmm, well for Dynasty Warriors 7:

*Xiahou Ba needs to go through puberty.
*Meng Huo needs to go back to his DW6:E physique.
*Lu Bu needs more armour.
*Liu Bei needs a moustache.
*Ma Chao needs to show us why he was called "Ma Chao the Splendid", not "Ma Chao the 18th century President of the United States".
*Zhen Ji should look more like a regal princess than a 3rd century prostitute.
*Wang Yi needs proper pants.
*Sun Shangxiang needs to ditch the glove and gain a little bit more armour.
*Sun Quan needs his pimp jacket from Dynasty Warriors 5 back (or he can just steal Liu Shan's)
*Gan Ning needs a haircut
*Huang Gai needs to lose the pony tail and transfer that hair to his mohawk.
*Daqiao needs to lose the hat and schoolgirl outfit and replace it with something...well...better.
*Xiaoqiao needs a complete overhaul...I don't even know where to begin.
*Zhou Tai needs a cape.

Lu Bu is too much of a tank to need armour. Unless they Changed that, I remember back in 4 Lu Bu was the most Badass son of a ***** in the whole wide world

That's true, though he could at least cover up his midriff.

I mean who does he think he is? Zhang He?

I don't think it looks that bad, he just needs to cover his midriff and maybe broaden his shoulders.

His DW4 design was good, and don't worry, personally I think DW4 had some of the best designs in the series (I loved Zhou Tai's design).

This thread was about character designs that could be improved and we've been discussing Lu Bu's design and how it could be improved :D

I was not a fan of Nuts and Bolts Banjo and Kazooie. Also, I wish the dragons in Legend of Dragoon were less like robots and more like dragons. The dragoon armor (and pretty much everythign else) is pretty neat though, so its just a titch disappointing.
